I have been trying to install ForesTools but the process has been failing apparently due to the failure of installing some of its dependencies. Below the error message:

Seems like the problems lie with the rgeos and rgdal installation. Try installing them on their own.

install.packages(c("rgeos", "rgdal"))

If they install successfully, the other packages shouldn't have any problems. Otherwise check out this potential solution:

Hi Andy, this is a dockerfile that seemingly solves the issue.
